Chapter 223: Elder Sun Fully Supports! (Part 1/2)

After waking up and having breakfast in the morning, Tang Feng headed to the research center.

“Director Tang!” Zhang Liang was very surprised to see him.

“Professor Zhang!” Tang Feng greeted.

“Why did you come so early today? Is there something urgent?” Zhang Liang seemed a bit anxious, as Tang Feng had not contacted him before coming.

“It’s nothing,” Tang Feng shook his head and said, “I am the chief designer of the Beidou Phase Two project. I plan to dedicate most of my time to this project.”

“Ah? What about your other work?” Zhang Liang was clearly stunned upon hearing this.

“The other work can be put on hold for now. I plan to complete the Beidou Phase Two project within three months,” Tang Feng confidently stated.

“Three months? Isn’t that too tight? The project’s progress isn’t very fast at the moment. With so much data needing calculation and verification, we clearly lack manpower,” Zhang Liang worried.

“All work should be based on the data I provide! This will save a lot of time. Of course, if there are any issues, the responsibility will be all mine,” Tang Feng quickly decided.

“But…” Zhang Liang seemed to want to say something else.

“Professor Zhang, the world situation is changing rapidly, and we don’t have much time left,” Tang Feng said meaningfully.

Seeing this, Zhang Liang didn’t say anything but nodded.

Tang Feng strode into the office building of the research center, with Zhang Liang following behind.

However, after much consideration, Zhang Liang still called Elder Sun.

“Elder Sun, there’s something I need to report to you.”

“Go ahead.”

“This morning, Director Tang came to the research center. He plans to complete the Beidou Phase Two project within three months.”

“Three months? He’s not joking, is he?” Elder Sun was clearly skeptical.

“No!” Zhang Liang shook his head and said, “His expression was very serious when he said this. Moreover, he instructed all the research personnel to base their work on the data he provides. If anything goes wrong, he will take full responsibility.”

“How can he do this? If there is a problem, it won’t just be his responsibility! No, I must call him right away!” Elder Sun said, then promptly hung up the phone.

“Elder Sun…” Zhang Liang wanted to say more, but the line was already dead.

Soon, Tang Feng’s phone rang.

Seeing that it was Elder Sun’s number, a sense of unease crept into his heart.

“Director Tang! I just received a call saying you instructed all research personnel to base their work on your data. Is this true?” Elder Sun asked urgently.

“Yes,” Tang Feng nodded.

“Why would you do this? Do you understand what the consequences could be if the data is incorrect?” Elder Sun asked sternly.

“Of course, I know! Elder Sun, have you been watching the news lately?” Tang Feng asked.

“The news? What news?” Elder Sun was puzzled.

“A war is happening abroad,” Tang Feng replied.

“That incident? What does that have to do with your decision?” Elder Sun inquired.

“It’s closely related! America shut down its opponent’s navigation system. Using this advantage, they caught their opponent off guard.”

Elder Sun fell silent.

“We are currently using navigation systems provided by America,” Tang Feng added.

“I see your point,” Elder Sun nodded and said, “But this is too risky! I think we should proceed cautiously.”

“The data I provide will definitely not have any issues. If you don’t believe me, you can organize more manpower for verification! Our time is extremely limited now, and I hope we can manufacture the atomic clock I designed within half a month,” Tang Feng said, somewhat agitated.

“I’ve seen the design of the atomic clock you created. Honestly, it’s very challenging. Not to mention half a month, even half a year might not be enough to manufacture it,” Elder Sun stated.

“I can liaise with the enterprise manufacturing the atomic clock and guide their work. I believe we can produce a fully qualified atomic clock within half a month,” Tang Feng was confident.

“Since you’ve put it this way, I naturally have nothing else to say. You are now the chief designer of the Beidou Phase Two project, and your opinion is the most important. If you think it’s feasible, then don’t hesitate! If the project really fails, then all responsibility will fall on me!” Elder Sun declared decisively.

“Elder Sun, that won’t do! If it fails, such a huge responsibility will destroy everything you’ve built,” Tang Feng firmly refused.

“I’m already of such an age! Personal honor and disgrace mean nothing to me! As long as we can complete the Beidou Phase Two project in the shortest time possible! Even if it costs me my life, it will be worth it!”

Hearing Elder Sun’s words, Tang Feng was deeply moved and momentarily lost for words.

“Go ahead with your plans! In the coming period, whatever resources you need, I will provide with all my might! Of course, I will also apply to higher authorities to increase manpower!” Elder Sun declared his support.

“Okay!” Tang Feng nodded and said, “Elder Sun, rest assured! I will definitely not let you down!”

After the call ended, Elder Sun thought for a moment and then called Zhang Liang.

“I’ve just spoken with Tang Feng. After our conversation, I’ve decided to fully support him! I hope you can support him too!” Elder Sun stated.

“Elder Sun, I definitely support him! I’m just worried that being too rash might lead to the project’s failure,” Zhang Liang explained.

“Throughout history, few major projects have succeeded on the first try! Currently, the situation is tense, and time is of the essence! I will also try to mobilize all human and material resources to complete this project in the shortest time possible!”

“I understand!” Zhang Liang nodded.

After hanging up, Tang Feng convened an emergency meeting.

He shared his thoughts with everyone at the research center, and they all looked at each other in disbelief.

Although they didn’t say anything, they were all muttering in their hearts.

Clearly, what Tang Feng said sounded no different from a madman’s words.

Not to mention three months, even completing it within three years would be quite difficult.

“Director Tang, I have great respect for your personal abilities! But our research center doesn’t have many people, and it seems impossible to complete so much work in such a short time,” someone stood up in opposition.

“I’ve already spoken with Elder Sun. He will help solve the manpower issue. Of course, I will also do my best to provide all the data! With this data, you only need to verify it, which will significantly reduce the workload,” Tang Feng said, pausing before adding, “I hope everyone can give their all in the coming period!”
